He played football growing up and looked up to Didger Drogba. But his uncle Cleophus insisted that he give track a shot.

Incidents and Scandals

A 20-year-old woman filed a lawsuit against Conseslus Kipruto in 2016 alleging child neglect. She also said that they were dating between 2015 and 2016.

He was accused of abandoning his ex-battle wife’s and declining to take on the role of their son’s father.

Similar to how Kirputo was charged and detained for having sex with a 15-year-old juvenile in 2020, in November of that year.

He later entered a plea of not guilty and was freed after posting $1,800 bail.

Kipruto was involved in an automobile accident in 2018. He accidentally struck a tractor with his SUV, but he was unharmed.

Similarly, in 2020, after Kipruto introduced his new girlfriend, pictures of her became viral on social media.

Most of the ladies in his native town did not like her since she was from another country, but the men applauded him for paving the way for international relationships.

How did Conseslus Kipruto Start His Career?

In 2010, Conseslus Kipruto started out by participating in the steeplechase’s junior divisions.

At the Kenyan Youth Trials, he won the 2000-meter steeplechase race with a time of 5:29.3.

Later, he made it possible for Kenya to participate in the 2011 World Youth Athletics Championships, which were held in Lille Metropole, France.

Kipruto and Gilbert Kiplangat Kirui, one of his colleagues, were able to establish a good lead early on in the finals.

Kipruto, however, won the gold medal by racing in 5:28.65. In the same way, he is ranked seventh among all young people in terms of time.

He raced in two elite cross country competitions at the start of the 2012 season.

Later, he earned first place in the Lotto Cross Cup de Hannut and second in the Cross de San Sebastian to place on the podium in both events.

After winning the 3000m steeplechase at the 2012 World Junior Championship in Barcelona, Spain, he also brought home another gold medal.

In a similar vein, his victory enabled Kenya to win the competition for the 13th time in a row. Kipruto also finished in eighth position overall among juniors with a timing of 8:06.10.

Senior Career

In the world of athletics, Kipruto was already regarded as a strong potential in the 3000m steeplechase. However, he later displayed glimmers of his grandeur at Meeting de Paris in 2012.

He finished the race in a personal-best time of 8:03.49, earning his first senior gold at the competition. His timing earned him a spot as the second-best junior of all time.

After winning the Internacional Juan Muguerza in 2013, Kipruto was able to compete for Kenya on the national cross-country squad.

However, his sixth-place finish at the Kenyan trials earned him a spot on the junior team.

He came in sixth in the junior 8k men’s race during the world championship finals.

He won the Diamond League opener in Shanghai with a meet record time of 8:01.16 to start the 2013 season.

Later, he was able to add two more victories at the 2013 Diamond League in the USA and Norway.

He also triumphed in Rome and Birmingham in June. In addition, he finished the 3000m steeplechase in 8:00.12, a personal best, in the British Grand Prix.

He succeeded in winning the races in Monaco and Brussels the following month.

Later, he lost to 2008 Olympic gold medallist Brimin Kiputo in the Kenyan Olympic trials, handing him his lone loss of the outdoor season.

But at the 2016 Summer Olympics in Rio, he did so by taking first place in Heat 3.

Conseslus Kipruto won the gold medal in the 3000m steeplechase event on August 17, 2016. Moreover, he broke an Olympic record by running in 8:03.28.

World Champion

He was only able to capture a gold medal at the 2017 Diamond League in Rome and Brussels.

But Kipruto triumphed at the 2017 World Championship in London, United Kingdom.

After winning two consecutive silver medals, he finally won his first gold at the finals with a time of 8:14.12.

He won the 3000m steeplechase race at the Commonwealth Games to start the following season. Once more, he finished in 8:10.08.

He later won gold at Roma, Birmingham, and Zurich during the Diamond League.

In addition, Kipruto captured the 2018 Diamond League championship at the Weltklasse by winning the 3000m steeplechase in 8:10.15, barely one second better than El Balkkalis.

He lost his left shoe in the middle of the race, which is interesting because he still competed and won.

Likewise, he had won the African Championships prior to his victory in Zurich. Conseslus was fortunate not to sustain a serious injury in Zurich.

He later won the 3000m steeplechase in the IAFF International Cup in Ostrava, Czech Republic, on September 8, 2018.

He will miss the most of the 2019 season due to injury. Nevertheless, he succeeded in taking first place at the World Championship in Doha, Qatar, finishing in a time of 8:01.35.

After testing Covid 19 positive in August, he was thus unable to play in the Diamond league in 2020.

Drop Out

Due to his accusation of having sex with a juvenile, Kirputo has been unable to fully train. As a result of inadequate training time, he was out of shape.

Later, due to fitness concerns, he was unable to finish the steeplechase race at the Kenya Olympics Trails and quit after only two laps. Kipruto was consequently ejected from the national Olympic team.

The Kenyan squad, however, has not made a decision regarding his future and he could return as a wildcard to the Olympics to defend his title.
